It sounds to me like you either have a bad inverter board(The board that lights up the screen),or a bad bulb in the screen itself.When you turn it on,and the screen goes away,shine a light on the screen,and see if you can see a picture.I hope this helps.Thank You very much!

fuzz balls in some areas on plasmas can actually be adjusted out on the Y board first mark the controls with a sharpy then watch the fuzz spot as you turn the controls a little to see which one clears up the picture. the back needs to be off and the Y board is laft side when you are facing the back

Sounds like the line output transformer is not soldered on the board properly or needs replacing. The quickest way to check for dry joints is if you tap the tv and the problem goes away then it needs soldering to the board properly. Otherwise sounds like a replacement line output transformer. Hope this helps.

The problem is the tape mechanism is malfuctioning. It trys eather to load or play a tape and a sensor inside tells the microprocessor to shut down this mechanism before damage is done to the tape. BUT sometimes a malfunction causes a damaged tape too. this unit has NO user serviseable parts inside itself, so its time to take this puppy into a repair shop to see if its worth the repair , Unless this units more then a few years old?? then its time to buy a shiny new unit. Good luck
